Outlook

With a Rating of 21.6, Alibekov carries the 26th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 40 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.27 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~3), then tapers with age. At 29, Alibekov sits on 1.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Alibekov's projected Rating — 21.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
